Our Lady's Catholic College (OLCC) is a mixed sex secondary school for pupils aged 11–18.
Formerly Our Lady's Catholic High School, it changed its name after being awarded Specialist Sports College status in September 2003.
By the end of year eleven the proportion of pupils attaining at least a C grade in both English and mathematics mirrors the national average.
Mathematics is stronger than English: impressive rates of progress were made in vocational courses, information technology and religious studies.
The KS3 curriculum encompasses the core subjects of English, Maths and Science, plus RE, history, geography and languages.
[8] The practical and creative subjects; PE, Technology, including Product design, Food, Textiles and also Art, Drama, Dance and Music are an important part of a students education, the school believes, so has decided to maximise the time available doing a full three year KS 3.
